plane spotting in Dublin?

hi, my little man is turning two next week and he loves planes... weather permitting, we would love to drive him somewhere where he can see planes taking off/landing etc. Would there be a good spot somewhere, apart from the obvious, Dublin airport? thanks

The perimeter roads around DUB have a few locations to pull in. If 10/28 is in use then the Old Airport Road is a good spot.

Plenty of spots, Also north of 10/28 the garden fencing has been removed and you can get very close with your young lad to taxiing aircraft. To get there on the map go to B go passed it turn right at the T junction go to the roundabout 3 exit to the right and drive about a mile and you will have lots of aircraft pass by.
